Thank you for all of your hard work in making all of your videos and your sewing projects!

[SwervinErvins]

I just want to say how inspiring you are Catherine. You seem like such a happy person and I think it’s at least partly because you’re constantly creating, constantly becoming inspired to create, and constantly improving your techniques and skills. You are also creating something that is not only useful but fun to wear and you can show off your works of art. Not only that but you are saving the environment not just in your closet but by teaching us how to do it as well. Your gift now has the ability to touch thousands of us and get multiplied as we teach them to others. You’re inspiring me to learn to sew, and teach my daughters as well. I’m even thinking this could be a great career path for one of them. Thank you for all you do here, Catherine. You are a gem! ❤

Thank you, dear Catherine! All I can say is that there are sewing projects I would NEVER ever have attempted, except that this 77-year-old found your channel a couple of years ago. Thank you also for helping us to understand the wastefulness of "fast fashion"; and that it can be very exploitive of third-world sewing workers. God bless you and your family, and continue to prosper the work of your hands and heart. ❤

I donated my ( huge) stash of material to my local senior rest home, because they had a sewing class. They were thrilled to get the material since I was moving out of state.

The mending box and thread that matches is Brilliant! I can’t believe I didn’t already do it! Thank you!

[LaughSewCreate]

How fun! loved getting to know you and your special sewing space! So sweet you still have some of your dad's treasures!

Thank you for this video. It will be a huge help for me when I have space to have a sewing/ craft room. I love your videos. I found you yesterday and I have been binge watching as many as I can. Love the tote bag and t-shirt redesign videos you have. I will put to use the ones on making t-shirts larger. Those are awesome!

[debibaird]

I love your videos! They are helping me teach my granddaughter how to upcycle thrift finds she loves. We just refashioned a shirred-top mini dress into a peplum top. Today, we will look at cute ways to embellish her toddler sister's t-shirts with fringe, buttons, ribbon... just for fun. Why not, right?

A great pattern paper is architectural sketch paper. It comes in rolls 12", 18" or 24" wide. It is thicker than pattern paper but still see through. I trace patters on it and then modify the new pattern. My store bought pattern stays intact. Also great for tracing a garment because you can see the seams through it.

Thank you for the tour. I got a lot of of ideas to use in my space. ❤️

What a blast to watch this video. Accolades to you on a "well " thought out sewing room system . I'll send to all my sewing friends. Organization really is the key to success! ✂

[michelleskotynsky]

I love your sewing/dressing room. 😊 You have a very Marie Kondo vibe, with your folding method and only keeping what makes you happy.

[hjccontest]

That was awesome! Have to admit I was a little dubious about this and whether I would enjoy it but I totally did! That is a great room and kudos to judi who helped....she is the master of organization!!! Great job!

[leslieinadress]

Oh my goodness. Check your mending box to see if you have anything that goes with your thread ? Genius ! I will say anything that goes with your needles too. Currently I have stretch needles in my sewing machine, serger and cover stitch. So 5 stretch needles and lots of thread. I’m definitely checking before I undo all of that work !

[louisetucker]

Love your frames of your glasses. Love your sewing space....

[kamillasandera-zech]

you have a lovely space, enjoy, congrats with the milestone

[dianejohanson]

I sew all the time also, mostly quilting projects and remodeling or making my clothing or darning my sons work clothes. I have 2 sewing tables for sewing machines and sergers, a large cutting table, and my ironing board and iron. I have a huge closet that holds everything from fabric, scraps, and thread to wrapping paper and ribbons to a sewing body form to crocheting supplies, and all my European Christmas ornaments and other Christmas decor and decorations. My room also houses all my painting supplies (I’m also a painter, mostly landscapes). This also doubles as an extra guest room with a Laz y boy sofa/queen bed and night stand. Also houses a large storage armoire and a triple set of Ikea glass doored cabinets that holds more fabric and my fashion doll collection and fabric for their gown making. This room is 13x15 feet and a big closet. I love my room. Only house that I ever had a dedicated craft/sewing room of my own.
